tlnuation Of his striking sketch, 1.-THE

using the best OF children's fables and
stories for school reading instead of the
insipid selections in the ordinary reading
books. Mr.. John Fiske writes about
'The Completed Work of the Federal
Convention" in his series of historical
papers; and DR.. Holmes continues his in
teresting account of his European expe-
riences. A very pretty short story, called
tEnceladus," by a lady who remains
anonymous, gives an account of some e x
periences in the recent earthquake region

is represented in this number, not by one
Of her short stories, but by a poem EMIT

poems by the late Err. Sill and by Graham

ADVANTAGES OF DRILLING.

National Republican: Militia need not
regret the time given to drill and %organiza.
ton, even though there is never the slight
est occasion tor their military services.
A good course of drill is a valuable
training for any man. There is no better
system of gymnastics than Upton's tactics
than a thorough education in them will
improve any young mans physique. his
personal appearance, and his strength and
activity much more than will compensate
for all the trouble of training.
Not the least valuable feature of a
urs of military discipline is the educa.
ton in the art and value of organization.
We have now got so big as a people
that organization is necessary in all pur-
suits of life. The individual man. standing
and working alone, counts for COM
paratively little. He accomplishes best
results when combined with others.
Whether we sweep streets or cut timber;
whether we pick cotton, hoe corn. make
h~orseshoes, sell goods or transport freight
We can do 1t best by combining men into
masses and performing the work on a
going to develope even more rapidly in
the future than this generation has seen
it developed, and it is going to ramify so
as to include every branch of indu stry.
Theyoungma entering life must recog-
nize this fact, and prepare himself for it.
If he hopes to succeed either in a large
or a small way he must train himself to
organize and be organized, and get all
the benefits of the system.
There can be no better way to fit him
self for this than by a strenuous course
Of military training. This will teach him
most effectively how to make himself an
efficient and valuable unit in any organ
ization, and how to handle other organic
ed units to accomplish the best results.
He will learn how to command others
and be commanded himself. It is almost
inevitable that whatever business he goes
into that for a time at least he will be
under the control of other men. and then
will have charge of men himself. In a
general way he cannot hope for any con-
siderable success in life without knowing
how to manage considerable bodies of
men to advantage. The best school tt
develop this talent is q well-disciplined
military company.

AN ARCTIC GIANT.

The Burr Robbins three Gigantic Shows
certainly have a genuine surprise in store
for the public this year, in the person OF
| his whaleship. a monster North Sea Whale
captured lately by an English Seal fish
ing outfit and brought into Liverpool
| where its purchase by a representative
of Mr.. Robbins was made. The clever
recital of a most exciting chase and its
capture as given in a late issue of the
Liverpool Daily Truth, IS too lengthy for
| space here, bat various authorities soon
| pronounce it a real whale" Whalemen
claim it to be the very largest whale" they
ever saw in or out of the water, and it
is also the onlyone of its gigantic species
ever exhibited in any country. The i'm
mense transparent tank containing the
huge oceanic giant is of course many times
the largest portable aquarium den ever
constructed, in this country at least, and
in transit the whole occupies the longest
mage Of 60, 1000 pounds capacity. 1t does
seem impossible to transport such a col
lossal cargo for exhibition, but Mr.. Rob
bins has made that matter a possible one
as it is presented to view daily in the
aquarium tent. and to see which mot a
renny's extra charge is made as the
bills say. The Whale is q very absorbing
attraction, but the advertisement in this
paper promises hundreds of other special
features, many OF them, now exhibited
for the first time, any one of which is a
, complete show in itself.
The show in general is fully up to its
past high plane Of merit, and its now
largely increased proportions and super.
Tor attractions coupled with Its reputable
high-toned character Is sure to tempt q
larger patronage than has ever before
been given to any tented show in this
city. The Whale and the great show will
be here on Friday, June 5, and don't
IyOu forget 1t.
